Hey! I adopted this story from Lerryn and hope you like it. I'll try to update often but I have another 3 stories going on. There will be some differences. This is the beginning. So please review.

"Oh great, I'm going to be late for my first day back at school!" Shouted Ebony as she threw herself out of her bed and into the shower.

She came out dripping wet with a green towel tied around her body and a green one tied round her hair. Outside of her room all that could be heard was shuffling and the occasional 'ouch'. Then Ebony emerged in her school uniform the same as Ichigo's. She had her shiny black hair; that was usually loose on her shoulders, now tied up in a side pony-tail with a white ribbon. She has very pale skin and people often said she looked like and ice queen and having glittering ultramarine eyes didn't help with that nickname. Ebony is always very sarcastic but she can manage to insert it into a conversation to make it funny. She grabbed her brown leather school case with her books inside. She grabbed an apple and slammed the door shut just as her mother Izumi shouted goodbye. The reason her dad wasn't in the house that morning was because he is a very successful business man in Tokyo so he's never really home.

"I guess I was too quick getting ready this morning, I still got 15 minutes until school starts." Stated Ebony.

She always walked through the park in the morning and today she decided she was going to sit on her favourite wooden bench in front of the fountain. Then she noticed that café again. She believed it was called 'Café mew mew' all the girls in her school had been there apart from her and her two best friends Ayame and Sakura. She then started to day dream about what it looked like inside, all pink and the smell of cake passing through her nose. But then she was brought back down to earth with a thudding kick when she realised what time it was.

"Why me? I can never be on time I always have to be early or late!" Ebony got up of the bench and started jogging to her school.

One of the teachers was already closing the gates so she sprinted and after some angry looks of the teacher, made it into the school. She spotted a girl up in front of her with red hair tied in two pig-tails. She noticed this and knew it was Ichigo; she must have been late if Ichigo had beaten her! Most girls in the school hated Ichigo just because she was going out with that tree hugging guy, Ayoma Masaya. Ebony liked Ichigo though she thought she was hilarious sometimes like when she dozed off in her geography lesson which Ichigo and Ebony had together. But Ebony, Ayame and Sakura weren't into guys like that and they always thought one day there dream boy would come along. So they could wait.

It was the period before lunch and Ebony was in art, she loved art because it was one of the lessons she was good at. Today they were learning how to draw things in perspective. Ebony already knew how to do this because when she wasn't busy enough at home doing homework or helping around the house; she was drawing anyone or anything.

"Hey Ebony you know that café in the park that's opposite the fountain?" Asked Ayame.

"Yeah, café mew mew". Explained Sakura.

"I know where you mean, why what about it?" Ebony said confused.

"Quiet in lessons please!" Interrupted the teacher.

"I'll tell you at lunch" Whispered Ayame and winked.

When the girls were outside they decided to go to where they always sat under there favourite maple tree.

"So tell me more about what you were saying in art Ayame" Ebony swallowed more food as she spoke.

"Yeah before miss got all angry and said 'Quiet in lessons please!' she's so annoying!" Ayame and Ebony were laughing hysterically at Sakura's impression of the art teacher.

"Anyway" Ayame said holding back giggles. "We both think it will be a good idea to go there after school you know, since every other girl in school has been there except us."

So it was settled the trio would go there after school and try some cake.

Ebony's fantasy in the park earlier that day was slowly unfolding. The café was just as she had imagined it, covered in pink and the smell of delicious cake. Ichigo that girl from school walked up and greeted them, then sat them down on a table near the window. 3 Menus were shoved in front of there faces and it took them a while to decide but they all ended up picking the same thing; double chocolate cake. As they waited to be served Ebony took another look around the café there were 4 other waitresses. A blue one drinking tea not doing anything, a yellow one running around doing tricks, kawaii, a green one dropping a lot of stuff and a purple one that looked a lotlike that supermodel Zakuro Fujiwara. Ichigo came over and took there order.

"Hey, don't you three go to my school?" Asked Ichigo

"No – that's why were in the same school uniform" Ayame joked sarcastically under her breath.

"Ah ignore her; we'll have three slices of chocolate cake please". Ordered Sakura. Trust Sakura to be the polite on of the group.

"On its way." Ichigo said unusually politely after she has just been insulted. Then she walked off to the kitchen.

Ebony looked around again, completely spacing out from the real world and all she could hear were the numb and faint voices of the people around the café and Sakura and Ayame talking. Then she noticed somebody she hadn't noticed before he had blonde hair and blue eyes almost the same as hers except his were more…. Masculine. He was stood there with his arm's crossed leaning against the door frame. He turned and looked straight at Ebony after noticing she had been staring at him for a while, she turned away with a light pink tinge appearing on her cheeks.

"Hey Ebony" Sakura shook Ebony

"Ebony snap out of it" Ayame waved her hands in front of Ebony's face.

"Huh, oh what, sorry" Ebony snapped out of it and faced her friends.

"We were saying look at that cute guy over there; but it looks like you already noticed him." Giggled Sakura

"I WASN'T LOOKING AT HIM LIKE THAT!" Ebony Screamed, she then realised she said it quite loudly and blushed a deep red this time.

"He's not your type anyway is he Ebony? Leave him for us two!

"Yup." Nodded Sakura in agreement.

"Whatever!" Ebony said slightly annoyed.

Ichigo and the cute little blonde waitress brought over there cake. The plate was cleared as fast as it had been put on the table.

"We will wait outside for you, whilst you pay Ebony." Said Sakura with the cutest smile she could.

"Oh thanks guys, you know I love you!" There goes Ebony's sarcasm.

Her two friends ran out the café, but to get her own back she decided to wait a bit until her food settled down. She waited about 5 minutes and decided that was enough. As she stretched pulling her arms above her head her jacket slightly lifted so you could see her belly button. That was where her newly found mew mark was. Of course Ebony hadn't noticed it as she was in far too much of a rush this morning.

How ever a certain blonde did notice and as Ebony was about to stand he approached her.

"Excuse me, could I talk to you in private for a second?" Asked Ryou as politely as possible, but Ebony wasn't buying it.

"Oh sure, cause I'm really going to go with a stranger into a back room where NOBODY CAN HEAR MY SCREAMS!" She shouted really sarcastically and the last bit especially loud and all of a sudden found her mouth being covered up by a hand, she turned round and relaxed when she saw it was Ichigo's.

"Ok, what the ding is happening Ichigo cause I'm pretty freaked!"

"Please miss allow me to introduce myself and the others" Said Keiichiro as he walked out of the kitchen. "I am Akasaka Keiichiro, this is Shirogane Ryou" He gestured to the creepy blonde. Ebony gave Keiichiro a smile and turned to Ryou and gave him the coldest glare.

"Of course you know Ichigo and these delightful girls are Mint, Pudding, Lettuce and Zakuro." Explained Keiichiro. Mint barely acknowledged my presence, Pudding glomped me, Lettuce bowed to me and Zakuro just smiled – at least I think it was a smile. I followed the rest of them down to the basement.

'Ha I bet it's just some broom cupboard that there going to shove me in as a horrible practical joke' Ebony thought to herself.

"Whoa! THIS IS NO BROOM CUPBOARD, Aw man, tell me I didn't just shout that?" Ebony said pleadingly. She looked around and saw computer screen, after computer screen the walls were blue and the floor tiles were blue and everything was so shiny! Ryou just laughed at her. Oh she was angry now!

"Listen Blondie, what would you do if you were in this situation hum? HUM?" Ebony Blared, pointing a finger in Ryou's face. Well let me tell you something you will be in my position one day when the evil guardians of the… the gates of hell come and take you!" Ebony shouted peeved.

Ryou totally ignored her and face one of the massive screens, there was a picture of a Giant Panda on it.

"AWW KAWAII I LOVE PANDAS!" Ebony said with her eyes going big and her hands held together on her chest.

"Right well who's going to tell her what's going on I have a photo shoot in about 20 minutes." Explained Zakuro.

"I will. Ebony y-" Ryou was interrupted.

"How do you know my name creep I never told you my name!"

Ryou gestured his head to Ichigo.

"Oh uh – never mind, he." Ebony laughed nervously.

"As I was saying, you are one of the mew mew's, I'm sure you have heard of them. As you know they all represent a red data animal:

Ichigo – Iriomote wild cat.

Mint – Ultramarine Lorikeet.

Lettuce – Finless Porpoise.

Pudding – Golden Lion Tamarin.

Zakuro – Gray wolf.

Each one of these five girls has Red data animal in there DNA and yours is compatible enough to become one. When your DNA has been made half animal, half human you will have to fight with the other 5 girls to save the world from aliens called Pai, Kisshu an Tart."

Ebony nearly burst out laughing at the thought of fighting little green men.

"Yeah so you're saying I'm one of these mew mew thingy's? Asked Ebony.

But before anybody could answer Ryou had already blasted her with a giant laser. Ebony could slowly feel herself losing consciousness.

Everything was pitch black and Ebony could see nothing, but just out of nowhere came a cute little panda cub. It walked up to her and just sat there. Everybody would think Ebony was crazy if they weren't actually there witnessing it but it walked up to her and actually went into her. As it disappeared a small light appeared and she made her way to it. Then she started to open her eyes all she saw were two very cute brown eyes, they belonged to Pudding.

"You have really pretty eyes Ebony Na no da!" Squealed Pudding.

"Uh thanks I guess, what the hell just happened?"

"Congratulations Ebony you are now the newest member of Tokyo mew mew." Said Keiichiro happily.

"Here's your uniform Ebony, start work tomorrow after school, you can walk with Ichigo."

"Yeah if you want to be late!" Replied Mint sarcastically.

"You mean I have to actually w…w…work? Fine I suppose. Ohflipmy friends" Ebony remembered her friends were waiting for her and she ran out of the lab and up the stairs hoping they were still there.

"What the ding took you so long Ebony?" Asked Ayame impatiently.

"Guys I think I just got a job!" Said Ebony.

Then all 3 girls started to walk out of the café entrance and set off across the park. What Ebony didn't know wasthat there were 2 aliens watching her walk away.

"Hey Kish, I think that's the new mew." Said Tart

"Yeah" Replied Kisshu. 'She's beautiful too, maybe even more so than Ichigo' He thought to himself. Then both Tart and Kish materialised and they were gone.
